Oh It's On, Bitch

hat tip = Driftglass, Professional Left Podcast



I think it's prob'ly a real thing, which makes it really hard for me to unravel the circularity of parody and self-parody and the un-self-awareness of it all.

Empty podia for the Dems.

And the GOP queen? Why, it's Mike Pence, of course.

A Product

  • This is not an endorsement
  • I don't get paid for any of this
  • It could be bullshit
  • Do your own thinking - Draw your own conclusions - Make your own decisions
  • It just seems like a good idea to me

Twitter pal Eve The Potter recently walked away from a pretty solid tech gig to follow her dreams.


Stonecrop Pottery

I ordered a tankard last week, and it's become a permanent fixture in the daily routine (ie: semi-OCD nut-ball morning ritual) that supports and reinforces my rather sever coffee jones.



Every piece is handmade and unique - built to last.

Dave Smith, Business Insider:

Sam Morrison likes to create thought-provoking art.

In high school, he made silk-screen shirts and decks of cards with secret compartments inside. But over the past several years, most of his projects were digital — that is, until he had the idea last year to make physical flip-flops out of President Donald Trump's tweets.

"Take a scroll through Donald Trump's 40,000 tweets, and you're sure to catch some contradicting opinions," Morrison told Business Insider over email. "I wanted to highlight this hypocrisy."

Morrison had a full-time job in the advertising industry at the time, but he got to work on producing his flip-flops. He sourced his own materials and printed and packaged every flip-flop by hand.

He made 1000 pairs, and they sold out in less than a month.

And for whatever it's worth now, here's Dennis Miller being prophetic, from a bit way back in the 90s - when he was still pretty funny, having not yet turned into the whiny-butt pussy "conservative" he is now. Bless his heart.
